Well they definitely still owe half a million, and any valuation of their house is meaningless until they actually sell it, so not so much. Sock The Great posted:So are these all cash buyers or do Canadian banks not require a home inspection to issue a mortgage? Typically banks want to be sure the house isn't going to collapse, seeing as they own it and all. This is just a news article, and I'm no expert, but it sounds like Canadian banks do not require a home inspection to issue a mortgage, as long as the property's assessed value matches up. https://business.financialpost.com/...ing-inspections quote:There is one group that doesn’t see much of a problem with the decline in home inspections: mortgage providers. Banks are far less concerned about costly repairs that may arise later and are instead focused on the appraised value of a property, Dasgupta said. Most property value in Vancouver/Toronto right now is in the land -- an 80:20 ratio is not uncommon, and it can be far worse than that. The last place I rented (a suite in) was valued at $3.9mil, with the actual house (which was built in the 60s and not terrible) valued at about $100K.

The job title of "home inspector" also means nothing here -- I don't know how it is in the US, but I here could just call myself a home inspector, sell lovely inspections that mean nothing because I am a random idiot, and the buyers would have no recourse against me.

Why do people keep using these lovely exchanges when they are constantly losing/stealing people's money? I have lost track of the number of places that this happens to. Is it just because it's much harder to actually do anything with bitcoincs/etc without an exchange?

It has absolutely no use as a currency except in buying drugs and child porn so it’s parked in an exchange in order to get some sort of “value” out of it.

One of my former coworkers just posted this on facebook.quote:When you have -362873 dollars in your bank account, but it doesn’t matter, because you’re the happiest you’ve been in a long time She left the place we worked about two weeks ago. She was pulling in probably about 44k a year, which isn't great, but she just turned 24 and it's pretty good at that age in a city with low unemployment and a competitive job marker, and having a degree in art. She left to be a vet tech with no experience at a clinic that does large volume spaying/neutering of cats/dogs (they provide veterinary care for a lot of shelters). I can't imagine she's making a lot of money. She's also been commuting to a school over an hour away a few times a week for the last 2 years while working on a masters degree in art therapy, which is where I imagine the bulk of that debt comes from. On top of that, she was living with a boyfriend of several years, but she found out he was cheating on her and they broke up. I knew she moved from where she was living, but I just found out that she didn't have enough money to get a place of her own, so the boyfriend moved in to the new place with her. I'm fairly certain it didn't end on good terms, because she did not seem to take the break up well, and she was bad mouthing him up until the day she left, so I can't imagine her living situation is great. I'm glad she's happy, because she didn't really seem to enjoy where she worked, but god drat that amount of debt would give me such bad anxiety that I wouldn't be able to function. She's not exactly a thrifty spender either.

gvibes posted:I recently bought a house with a mortgage in the US without doing an inspection. I don't think it's generally required. It is not.

I had to use Removeddit to find this one, but it's a doozy: Pregnant and Financially Screwed quote:I have to start by saying I have gotten myself into this mess. I understand that. I am the child of two fiscally irresponsible adults. My mother has claimed bankruptcy 3 times. My father is on a fixed income and struggles to make ends meet. This is not an excuse by any means, but I want to state it so you know where my mindset on money is. I am pregnant with my first child. My husband and I are excited but now I’m freaking out. We are currently behind on bills, trying to sort a payment plan for 2 mons of mortgage we missed this summer due to terrible budgeting and over $3k in unexpected expenses, and have crippling credit card debt. Before everyone suggests I get rid of everything and live in a tent, there are a few things I should note. I will not leave my home, I will not sell the car (we are upside down in the loan anyways), and my husband already works extra when he can. Being in my first trimester, it’s tough enough to do my own job. Without getting totally into dollars and cents, can anyone make suggestions on how to help get through this? On top of $10k in credit card debt, $800 in utilities owed, and $idfk in student loans, we have to put a fence in and knock down a lead garage before our child is born. Anyone that can offer some advice or peace of mind would be great. I know people love to tear others apart on this sometimes but trust me...I’m tearing myself up enough as is.

They edited the main post as some point to say that they have $150k in student loans in deferment, and need a bunch of money for the fence for their dogs. They have to spend $350/mo on dog food because it has an allergy and needs to eat duck. That girl is *hosed*.

Phanatic posted:The team made a single payment to the county, and then moved to Connecticut. And what’s funny is that the Connecticut side was also terrible. The capitol Hartford wanted a minor league team to revitalize some crappy area so they stole a team from two towns over which had a nice stadium. That now empty stadium is where the Camden team went. Also the new Hartford stadium was yet another debacle involving firing the developer and missing the deadlines by a year or something.

Omne posted:https://www.cnbc.com/2018/09/21/the-student-loan-bubble.html People who are really BWM use loans to pay for everything in college, don't pay the interest during that time, and it all adds up fast when you include housing, car costs, and required school stuff like expensive books. They were probably private, predatory loans so the interest rates were super high too. $600,000 is ridiculous though, especially for something other than a medical or law degree. Even then, that's incredibly high for those degrees.

The loans were originally $150,000 - which is still high, don't get me wrong, but not bafflingly unbelievable for two people. Then they spiraled to $600,000 with interest and fees while they haven't been able to pay them down.

I was going to make a comment that the government shouldn't be giving out loans to people who attend colleges that have high default rates, but apparently we already do that. If the default rate for a school is 40% for more than one year, or above 30% for three years, then you can't get a federal loan to go to that school. Now here's the funny part from the article I found. https://www.ed.gov/news/press-releases/national-student-loan-cohort-default-rate-falls quote:Schools with high default rates may lose their eligibility to participate in federal student aid programs. This year, 12 schools are subject to sanctions, including one public, two private, and nine proprietary institutions. People are taking out student loans to go to Barber College!
